Hi Everyone,
Here is some info about haiti and the earthquake there..
Between 10 and 15 kilometres below the surface the Caribbean plate and the North American plate transform or slid past each other. The energy released after the collision caused the Haiti earthquake. The earthquake happened in Haiti which is in the Caribbean Sea between North America and South America.
It is an island that has an area of about 27 750 square kilometres.
The epicentre of the earthquake was about 25 kilometres South West of the capital city Port-Au-Prince.

On Dec. 26, 2004, a massive underwater earthquake measuring 9.0 on the Richter scale rattled the Earth off the coast of Indonesia's Sumatra Island. This devastating earthquake caused a tsunami. The death toll reached higher than 220,000, and many communities suffered disastrous damage to their homes/buildings. How amazing does this look!!
